Mansfield Park isn’t my favorite Austen by any means, but I don’t get what people don’t like about it! It’s probably my 4th out of 6, but only because Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, and Emma are so good =X
Don’t feel like a schlub. I won’t say it is easy to write drama, but it’s also not easy to write a book that makes everyone scared of clowns, but Steven King did it. I assume clowns hate him for it, though I have no proof.
Tough one…relating to one of your recent posts, the Count of Monte Cristo is there…Wuthering Heights…The Dark Tower series…Alvin Maker or Ender Saga (Orson Scott Card)…currently reading Crime & Punishment which is shaping up to be up there also…so many great reads…either the classics or modern classics!

‘Pride and Prejudice…
Oh no here come my fav quotes…so sorry…
‘It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife’
‘A lady’s imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment’
What about Pride and Prejudice and Zombies? It gives you all of the Pride, all of the Prejudice….and also, Zombies.
Each to their own, if you find Zombies do it for you than great! Colin Firth in P&P – ohhhhh!!!
Mansfield Park by Jane Austen! Love it even though not many Austen fans do. P&P comes in tied for second with Gone With the Wind.

I’ll have to check it out.
“Jane Eyre”!
The Classics getting a lot of love on bookshelfbattle.com lately.
Feeling like a bit of a schlub after all the classics listed, but I’m gonna go with IT by Stephen King. 🙂

Wow. I feel a bit like an outsider and am going with Scarlet by Marissa Meyer but if I had to chose a Classic, The Great Gatsby! Loved that book 🙂
did you like the movie?
Yeah I thought it was pretty good ^^
Did you see it?
Jasper Jones by Craig Silvey and IT by Stephen King – both I’ve read over and over and never tire of them
Classics and a book about a Killer Clown seem to be the general consensus.

Crime and Punishment is pretty good.
Bleak House, by Charles Dickens.
Dickens really had a knack for shining a spotlight on the problems of the poor through his writing.
Maybe 1984 or Wuthering Heights.
Big Brother is watching Heathcliff.
Ha ha! Big Brother would totally have his eye on Heathcliff!
